"She's with the Shield?!" AJ's shrill scream came through Kaitlyn's laptop. Kaitlyn paused the video; taking in the sight of her ex-best friend furious facial expression. She looked as if her head was going to explode.
"Watching that video again?" Natalya asked as she walked out of the bathroom with her hair up.
Kaitlyn merely laughed as she nodded. "Yeah…look look, you can see her eyes bulging out."
Natalya leaned over, letting out a slightly chuckle as she shook her head. "Looks a lot like my face when I saw the Shield go help you…well minus the anger. More impressed really."
"Impressed?" Kaitlyn asked incredulously.
Natalya nodded as she sat down on the bed. "You got the attention of the Shield. Hell, you had it for a long time now. That's going to do you really well. I'm almost jealous of you. I wish they decided they wanted to help me out." She answered. "Then maybe I'd be on top again."
Kaitlyn looked at her; not completely believing her. Here she was with Natalya; a true veteran who had seen it all and been through it all and she was admitting she was jealous of her? Kaitlyn almost wanted to fist pump at that. One half of the Divas of Doom…wow…
Kaitlyn looked down at her computer screen, meaning to turn it off when she heard her phone buzz. Quickly picking it up, she looked through the text:
Head over to room 230.
Dean
"I uh…have to go." Kaitlyn said as she looked over at Natalya. "Can you turn the laptop off?" Natalya simply waved her off as she grabbed her own cellphone; perhaps to call Tyson. Kaitlyn grabbed her room key; slipped on her slippers and started her way down the hall to 230.
She walked past a few wrestlers who did nothing but look at her. Kaitlyn felt awkward at their silence or refusal to acknowledge her; especially the Divas. Hell, even the Bellas twins didn't spare her an insult. Had she done something to them? Oh god, am I in trouble? She thought to herself. Though, how would everyone else know before her?
Kaitlyn shook her head as she pushed her worries aside. She was just overthinking…they were probably tired. It had been a busy day today; she wouldn't be too happy either. Replacing her confused expression with a grin she made it to the room and knocked on it.
She looked around at a few nearby superstars watching her wait; all of them sporting a face full of questions. Kaitlyn quickly realized why she wasn't getting any friendly greetings; it's because of the three men she publically joined a few nights before.
Her head whipped forward as she heard the door click; In front of her stood Dean who was sporting a smirk. "Come in." He said, opening the door wider for her.
She looked to the side as the wrestlers quickly looked away; probably not wanting her to notice they were looking but, she had noticed. She smiled up at Dean before walking into the hotel. She was instantly met with the sight of Seth lounging on a sofa as he skimmed through some magazine while Roman was getting out of the shower, towel rapped around him.
Kaitlyn's cheeks instantly flushed at the sight. She turned her head quickly, looking over at Dean who had now taken a vacant spot on the couch.
"You texted…?" She asked, crossing her arms over her torso.
"Yeah…" Dean said giving Kaitlyn a once over. "Cute unicorn slippers, by the way." He smirked.
Kaitlyn instantly felt self-conscious of her slippers. Perhaps unicorn slippers weren't the best shoes to wear to meet up with the Shield. "Well it is night time; I had no time to get my black combat boots." She joked.
Seth let out a soft chuckle from behind her; causing her to look behind at him. "Bite Me?" He asked, a playful grin on his face.
"What ar- ?" Her face blanched as she realized what shorts she was wearing. Those 'Bite Me' shorts that she had gotten from a friend as a gag gift. Face turning red; her hands shot around to her behind as she covered the words. "They were a gift." She said lamely; causing the men in the room to laugh.
Kaitlyn glared around the room before throwing her hands down beside her. "Did I come here for you to make fun of my pjs?" She asked as she shifted her glare around the three.
Dean let out a chuckle before shaking his head. "As fun as that is, no. We actually have to discuss your recent agreement to join us. Now that you're with us we have to get you caught up in what we're doing…get you into our business. Get you stronger." He said.
Kaitlyn simply nodded. "Fair enough…how will you guys be doing that?" She asked; moving towards a wall and leaning herself on it.
Seth was the one to speak up. "We were thinking that you should join in our next ambush…so you can get the feel of it. We'll have to work you into what we do; especially if we ambush a Superstar." He explained; putting the magazine on his stomach.
"Now you're in a group…a stable; we have to get you in. We work together here, which means we're gonna have to make sure we can get you working with us. You don't look like someone who'd just want to be eye candy when we aren't helping you with AJ." Dean said.
Kaitlyn shook her head. "I did that once…I don't ever plan on being that again." She spoke. She had been just that for Dolph when they were a thing. Yeah, she had enjoyed supporting him but she didn't like just being some valet. She didn't want to fit into the mold WWE desperately wanted her to be in; she wasn't something a guy could get a quick go at…she was a wrestler.
Roman, now having put on pants and a shirt, walked to the group as he clasped his hands. "I'll be helping you with getting stronger." He said. "Since we both do the spear I can help you make it more impactful."
Kaitlyn nodded; glad to hear that she'd be able to work on her spear. It was a move she had adopted into her ring work and honestly didn't want to let go of anytime soon. It was powerful and had fit well for her. She would love to do more damage with it. "Alright."
Roman nodded once. "Be ready tomorrow…we'll hit the gym in here and we can work then."
"Are you like my personal trainer now?" She joked.
Roman nodded as he shrugged. "Yeah…until you get stronger. We want to make an impact in all of WWE and you're all we have for the Divas side. We have to make sure you're strong."
"Right." She said. "Tomorrow then…I'll be ready."
Dean clasped his hands together before getting up. "That's it for now. Get your rest. You'll need it for tomorrow night."
"Oh uh, okay." Kaitlyn said, nodding before standing up straight. "Uh, goodnight." She said, turning on her heels and starting her trek out of the hotel room.
"Goodnight!" Seth called back, before opening his magazine again.
They are really all business, huh? She thought to herself as she placed her hand on the doorknob. She honestly felt a bit weird being all buddy-buddy with the Shield. It almost made her want to go back to fearing them.
She opened the door, expecting to walk out but was met with Big E in front with AJ right behind him. Kaitlyn let out a gasp as he looked down at her intimidatingly.
"Just who we wanted to see." He said, leaning into her.
Kaitlyn opened her mouth to say something but was instantly pulled back by hands. She found herself behind Roman with Dean and Seth next to her.
"What'd you want, son?" Roman asked, putting on his intimidating face. Kaitlyn looked on from behind him.
"You've really joined them!" AJ gasped out while shaking her head. "I thought this was some trick or something but you're really with them…in their room. I'm oddly envious of you."
"What do you want, AJ?" Kaitlyn asked, trying to move around Roman but he was stiff where he stood, glaring at Big E.
"Was just snooping, trying to see if you really joined them." AJ answered honestly. "So what'd you do to get in this spot? Give them money? Or did they mistake you for a Superstar because of your man arms?" AJ said before looking over at the guys. "She's not a Superstar. I know, I know I make the same mistake too."
Kaitlyn tried to move around Roman but Dean had placed his arm around her waist; stopping her from lounging at the smaller girl. "At least I don't look like a middle schooler!" She called over. "No wait…a middle schooler has more figure then you!"
"You cow!" AJ tried to lounge herself at the Texan but Big E held her back. "Not now, AJ! Let's go!" Big E said, but AJ kept trying to wiggle out of his grip.
Roman took his eyes off of Big E and turned around, pushing Kaitlyn back as he tried to close the door. AJ's foot kicked the door as she tried to keep it open but Roman's weight instantly closed it.
"Let go of me!" Kaitlyn struggled in Dean's grip.
"No! I'm not letting you go after her, not now!" Dean barked out. "Calm down!"
Kaitlyn stopped moving; she tried to regulate her breathing. She just hated AJ so much. She has ruined everything for her; everything! If there was anyone she'd love to see fall down from their own high pedestal it was her. And, she wanted to see her hit the ground hard.
Kaitlyn felt her breathing go back to normal as she stopped moving. "Okay. I'm calm." She said, feeling Dean slowly let go of her. "See? I'm okay."
The three men watched her carefully as she moved over to the couch and sat down. They watched her go through multiple emotions she was sure they couldn't really understand. How could they? They had never experienced having their very best friend turn on them and end their whole career. Since they've debuted they've been together; best friends in this brotherhood. They were fortunate.
She looked up at them as they looked at her; seemingly studying her before Seth came over and placed a hand on her shoulder as he sat down. "Are you uh, alright?"
Kaitlyn shook her head before sighing. "No." She looked over at Seth before down casting her eyes and standing up. "If you end up ambushing Big E and AJ is out there don't expect me to just stand around and watch." She said before pushing past the three men and walking out of the room.
A/N: Another update! I've finally figured out what couple I'm going to do but ya'll will figure that out later! MWAHAHAHA x{D Please review?
